Contentions Fierce, Ardent, And Dire, Spring From

The Time Which Passes Over Our Heads So Imperceptibly Makes The Same Gradual Change In Habits, Manners And Character, As In Personal Appearance. At The Revolution Of Every Five Years We Find Ourselves Another And Yet The Same;--there Is A Change Of Views, And No Less Of The Light In Which We Regard Them; A Change Of Motives As Well As Of Action.

Success Or Failure In Business Is Caused More By The Mental Attitude Even Than By Mental Capacities.

As Long As The Fates Permit, Live Cheerfully.

Spur Not An Unbroken Horse; Put Not Your Plowshare Too Deep Into New Land.

Loud O'er My Head Though Awful Thunders Roll, And Vivid Lightnings Flash From Pole To Pole, Yet 'tis Thy Voice, My God, That Bids Them Fly, Thy Arm Directs Those Lightnings Through The Sky. Then Let The Good Thy Mighty Name Revere, And Hardened Sinners Thy Just Vengeance Fear.
